NEW AND IMPORTANT OPINIONS
Es OF PULMONARY EXPERTS
Can the Universal Consumptien b
Sucoessfh1ly TreatedT

DIR. Borgeon, leading French doctor,
has new treatment for consumption.
He gives All enema Of carbonic acid
snlphuretted hydrogen gases, the latter
gas carrying the forlner into every part
of the throat and lungs.
This treatment, TOO, is directed at
effects--the cause remains undisturbed.
What this caus els has been stated by
perhaps the highest pulmonary authority
in the world, i. e., the Brompton Hos
pital for Consumptives, in London, Eng.
This malady every year carries off from
one-seventh to one-fifth of the entire
population of Englandl
DR.. Payne, NJ D., NJ. Rep, London, is
authority for this statement.
The same or greater proportion oil
deaths obtains in America.
DR.. Payne also says that one-half the
total number of deaths from all other
causes have seeds OF this disease in the
system which only require some irritant
to develop!
DR.. Hermann Brehmer, an eminent
German authority, says that consump-
tion is caused by. deficient nutrition OF
the lungs, by poor blood.
These authorities cannot be disputed.
Tho medical world recognizes them. The
uric acid is the irritant in the blood that
causes the development OF the seeds
which DR.. Brehmer says lie dormant in
the blood.
Every particle of blood which passes
through the lungs and heart, also goes
through the kidneys, and if they are in
the least deranged they cannot rid the
blood of its killing poison. The thousand
little hair-like sewer tubes OF the kidneys
very easily get blocked up and diseased ;
and when they do, they corrupt instead
Of purifying the blood. Kidney disease
may exist, and yet no pain occur in that
organ, because it is deficient in nerves oi
sensation.
Dip your finger in acid every day and
it soon testers and is destroyed. Send
acid poisoned blood through the lungs
every second, and they soon give way.
The Brompton Hospital investigation
showed that 81 per cent. of the victims
of consumption were afflicted with de-
ranged kidneys, which permitted the uric
acid poison to remain in the blood and
irritate the lungs. This uric acid is al.
ways fighting every vital organ, and il
there be any inherent weakness in the
lungs it inevitably causes pneumonia,
cough and consumption.
The real cause Of pulmonary troubles
being SO authoritatively shown to be
faulty even though unsuspected action OF
the kidneys, explains why, in order to
master the DREADED consumption. one
must rid the blood OF the uric acid irri-
tant which infiames and burns up the
lung substance. For this purpose there
is nothing equal TO that great specific,
Warmers safe cure. This remedy has
now the favor of medical men all over
the world purely on its merits. We have
no doubt that ii the Kidneys are kept in
natural action, consumption and a great
many other diseases, caused by uric acid,
will not only be cured but will be pre-
vented.
When the kidney is healthy, no albu-
men appears in the water, but albumen
is found in tho water of more than half
OF those who die of consumption!
This, then, is the condition OF things
that always precedes consumption
First, weakened kidneys; second. re-
tanned uric acid, poisoning the blood (;
third, the development Of disease in
the lungs by the irritant acids passing
through them. Then there is little

flesh and strength, with dreadful night
sweats; and when the patient goes to his
school physician for help, he is put on
eod-liver oil which his stomach, weak.
ened also by uric acid in the blood, can
not digest. Because there is no pain
present in the kidneys, the patient does
not think they are affected, but the kid
ney acid is doing its work every minute,
every hour, day and night, and by-and-by
the disease OF the lungs has advanced
until pus is developed, then come hemor-
rhages, and at last the CLASSY stare which
denotes that the end is near!
A post-mortem examination Of such
cases shows that the terrible uric acid
has completely destroyed the substance
of the lung.
1t is impossible to cure lung disease
when the blood is poisoned with uric
acid. Ay,s
